  • Page 3: Important Information

    The fireplace is designed to sit directly on a combustible floor. The fireplace must be installed with clearances to combustible building materials specified in this manual. Only parts manufactured by Monessen Hearth Systems and labeled for use with the fireplace should be used in the installation of this fireplace except for special roof flashings that may be fabricated locally.
  • Page 4: Operation Guidelines

    Because cold air infiltration may be unavoidable in some structures, Monessen Hearth Systems is not responsible for heat loss or air infiltration through or around the fireplace.

  • Page 7: Fireplace Location

    IREPLACE OCATION CAUTION: Do not install fireplace over carpeting. This fireplace does not weigh more than large pieces of furniture and can normally be located near a load bearing wall without requiring additional foundations or supports. If however, the fireplace is to be trimmed with a heavy stone or brick facing and hearth extension, be sure the supporting structure is adequate.
  • Page 8: Installation Preparation

    NSTALLATION REPARATION Survey the planned location for the fireplace for overhead plumbing or electrical wires, etc., that might complicate the installation or endanger persons installing or cleaning the chimney. Avoid a location where the chimney cap will be near abrupt changes in the roof shape, nearby wall or embankments, under or near trees or above the roof of a single story wing of a two story building as shown by Figure 8.

  • Page 10: Floor Protection

    LOOR ROTECTION If this fireplace is installed on a combustible floor, the floor area 20 inches in front of, and 12 inches either side of the fireplace opening must be protected by an insulating noncombustible hearth extension. This hearth extension may be either minimum 6-inch thick stone or brick as shown by Figure 9, an H2068 hearth extension kit or a locally constructed equivalent to the H2068.
  • Page 11 LOOR ROTECTION The ability of insulating material to retard the transfer of heat may be expressed as either Thermal Conduc- tance (C), Thermal Conductivity (K), or Thermal Resistance (R). The mathematical relationship of these values and the formulas for converting one value to another is as follows: C=K divided by the material thickness (Example C = .43 divided by 1/2 (.50) C = .86)

    HIMNEY HASE The preinstalled chimney sections should be no more than 13 inches below the top of the chase. The installation should be planned so that either a two-foot or three-foot chimney section will be used for the top section. This is necessary to ensure complete engagement of the inlet air telescope and chimney cap into the top section.

  • Page 22: Outside Combustion Air Precautions And Recommendations

    UTSIDE OMBUSTION UTSIDE OMBUSTION ECOMMENDATIONS 1. Extremely long runs and numerous turns in the duct leading from the fireplace to the combustion air assembly should be avoided. These conditions will increase the resistance to the free flow of air through the duct.

    OMBUSTION AK-4 C ODEL OMBUSTION 1. Remove the cover plate from the 4-inch outlet opening location on the left outside of the fireplace. DO NOT remove the cover if the outside air will not be connected. 2. Place the insulation ring between the AK-4 starting collar and fireplace wall and place the starting collar (4 inch) into the hole on the left side of the fireplace.
  • Page 24: Gas Appliance Installation

    PPLIANCE NSTALLATION Improper installation or operation of a gas appliance in this fireplace can allow unburned gas to leak ARNING out which will cause a fire or explosion hazard, or the release of poisonous carbon monoxide into the dwelling which can cause serious injury or death to its inhabitants. To reduce these risks to a minimum, the following important notices and instructions should be read and followed carefully.
  • Page 25 PPLIANCE NSTALLATION 7. Pack the insulation removed in step 4 around the pipe to prevent air flowing through the tube either into or out of the firebox. 8. Be sure the gas is turned off at the appliance, then turn the gas on at the cut off valve and test the gas line connections for leaks with soapy water solution or a liquid leak detector.

    IREPLACE PERATION : If a decorative gas appliance is used in the fireplace the fireplace damper must be fixed in an open ARNING position. (See additional operation information in section titled “Operation Guidelines”.) DVANTAGES OF A These are the practical, ecological advantages of wood as a fuel. Also to be considered is the aesthetic appeal.
  • Page 28 IREPLACE PERATION You’ll need a minimum of three logs, preferably four, to make a good fire. Add kindling and new logs as needed to rekindle a dying fire. New logs should be added at the rear grate after raking the coals toward the front. D .
  • Page 29: Maintenance And Safety

    Make sure the chimney is clear from any accumulation of soot, creosote or any other debris, and that all joints are intact. Monessen Hearth Systems does not recommend chemical cleaners because some may contain elements that corrode the metal parts of the chimney or fireplace.
  • Page 30 AINTENANCE AND IREPLACE AINTENANCE At the end of each heating season or when the fireplace will not be in use for an extended time, the ashes should be removed and the hearth area should be swept as clean as is practical. The slow absorption of moisture into the ashes over a long period of time could cause a condition which would be corrosive to the metal fireplace parts.
  • Page 31 24. Don’t clean the chimney with metallic devices or chemical cleaners. 25. Don’t use the fireplace or chimney for venting wood or coal burning heaters or inserts unless approved in writing by Monessen Hearth Systems. 26. Don’t put combustibles within 28 inches of the fireplace opening.
